Ten years running, the annual ARPA-E Energy Innovation Summit is the place to be if you want to see the cutting-edge ways America is addressing our energy challenges and changing how we think about traditional energy technologies.

This year, 50 graduate and Ph.D. students from across the country will be part of the action through ARPA-E’s Student Program, a unique opportunity for student leaders in energy to attend the Summit and network with government and companies who are looking for top talent.

At the Summit, running July 8-10 at the Gaylord Rockies in Denver, Colorado, the Student Program will bring in a diverse mix of technical, scientific, business, and policy students from top institutions to attend the Summit sessions. They’ll hear from keynote speakers like Dean Kamen, Founder and President of FIRST Robotics and DEKA Research & Development Corporation, and Barbara Humpton, CEO of Siemens USA, and will have a chance to visit and tour the exhibits in the popular ARPA-E Technology Showcase.

The Student Program is sponsored by the Anthropocene Institute and Cypress River Advisors, and will also include a conversation on Science communication from Destin Sandlin, engineer and science communicator known for his Smarter Every Day video series. The Student Program’s Energy Professional Networking opportunities provide additional focused events for the students to meet with recruiters and energy professionals.
